The Khalkotauroi (tauroi khalkeoi bronze bulls) are mythical creatures that appear in the Greek myth of Jason and the Golden Fleece. They are two immense bulls with bronze hooves and bronze mouths through which they breathe fire. In the Argonautica Jason is promised the prized fleece by King Aeetes if he can first yoke the Khalkotauroi and use them to plough a field.
